Created by Peter M. Lenkov and Lucas Marangon, R.I.P.D. centers on the Rest In Peace Department, a divine law-enforcement division comprised of ghosts who grapple with spirits who aren’t ready to depart this world. Reynolds stars as Nick Cruz, a recently murdered police officer who trades 100 years of service to the R.I.P.D. in exchange for a shot at finding his killer, while Bridges plays his partner, a wise-cracking ghost who’s been hunting spirits since the 19th century.

Parker would play the woman overseeing the R.I.P.D., a role Jodie Foster reportedly had shown interest in before eventually passing on the film.

Clash of the Titans screenwriters Matt Manfredi and Phil Hay penned the script. Dark Horse’s Mike Richardson will produce with Neal Moritz and David Dobkin.
